The PSRU is an RD-1C= , 2.85 to one.  Prop is a 3 blade with a little Paul Lipps action desi= gned in. 68" diameter I think.  The one bad thing about Larry's Vari-P= rop is that the high horse power one like I have is kinda heavy. I want to = say 40 lbs but don't quote me on that.   The airplane is a Lancair 360= so a heavy prop was good since the only place I could find to put the radi= ator was behind the baggage compartment...  I am pretty nervous about = putting this thing on a scale as I have no clue what its gonna weigh or whe= re the CG is.  I read the list every day but rarely post as I almost a= lways find the answers to my questions.  Once I get trying to start an= d tune this beast I'll be posting lots more.  Hopefully this summer (b= ut I've said that once or twice before).

Tom, there is a gentleman in Texas w= ho had an article in the Contact Magazine in late 09 or early 2010, who has= a new model of the Marcotte PSRU on a Subu with the constant speed prop, I= don't know the issue off hand as my machinist friend has all my magazines = relating to the Marcotte, as well as my redrive, to make a seal retainer fo= r the output shaft and tap the redrive for an oil cooler and a temperature = pickup.  If someone on this site has the Contact Magazine it has the e= -mail address of the fellow in Texas.  I talked with him last summer a= nd he had over 80 hours on the PSRU and was happy with it.
